What is Root Canal Treatment ?

Root canal treatment is a procedure that involves cleaning the infected central portion of the tooth called pulp and relieving the tooth from pain. The whole process is done under local anesthesia and is entirely painless. The pulp is the central portion of the tooth which contains nerves and blood vessels. When the pulp gets infected, inflamed, or injured leads to pain and can cause the spread of infection to other surrounding tissues of the tooth.

You may need a root canal therapy (RCT) if you have –

  • Sensitivity/pain in a tooth on having something cold especially drinking something chilled/cold.

  • Pain in the tooth while applying pressure to eat/chew something (the patient avoids eating on the side where the infected tooth is)

  • A sinus near the gum of the infected tooth which comes and goes (may or may not have pus) this tooth may or may not have pain.

If the tooth is cracked or has a cavity, it is more susceptible to bacteria due to more food lodgement issues. Once the bacteria invade the central portion of the tooth, it leads to pain. If root canal treatment is delayed or not done, there is an accumulation of pus inside the tooth and chances of spread of infection to the surrounding tissues.

Common causes of damage to the pulp –

  • Cracked tooth

  • Chipped teeth

  • The trauma of the tooth

  • Deep dental cavity

  • Faulty dental crowns

  • Multiple procedures on the same
    tooth

    tooth
